Of
the
Earle
of
Warwicks
taking
of
great
store
of
Armes
and
Ammunition
.
THe
Earle
of
Worwicke
having
received
letters
from
the
Parliament
,
informing
him
that
they
have
received
certaine
information
that
there
are
preparations
made
,
both
in
France
and
Spains
for
warre
,
and
that
great
forces
are
raised
in
those
Countries
,
which
as
it
is
conceived
upon
just
cause
are
intended
either
to
releive
the
Rebels
in
Ireland
,
or
to
assist
the
King
in
His
War
against
the
Parliament
.
The
said
Earle
repaired
towards
Callis
where
it
is
reported
that
a
great
Army
are
raised
,
and
lye
in
a
readinesse
for
some
great
designe
intended
by
the
French
King
,
which
the
said
Earle
hopes
to
discover
,
that
thereby
the
better
meanes
might
be
used
to
deseate
their
wicked
purposes
:
And
although
▪
we
have
not
heard
the
certainty
of
that
discovery
,
yet
this
we
are
sure
of
,
that
his
Lordship
hath
done
very
lately
speciall
service
for
the
King
and
Parliament
,
for
on
Saterday
the
17.
of
September
,
foure
shippes
like
unto
Cole
shippes
were
discerned
by
the
Earle
of
Warwicke
,
sayling
towards
Newcastle
whereupon
his
Lodship
sent
out
two
good
shippes
to
discover
whence
they
were
,
and
meeting
with
them
they
strooke
sayle
and
pretended
that
they
were
going
to
Newcastle
for
Coales
which
they
intended
to
bring
to
the
Cittie
of
London
,
but
in
regard
they
were
farre
from
the
coasts
and
had
much
varied
from
the
usuall
compasse
,
which
our
Marryners
use
to
passe
in
upon
that
service
,
the
said
Earles
shippes
rested
not
sati●fied
with
their
pretended
answers
,
but
boarded
the
said
ships
knowing
that
it
was
both
a
safe
and
sure
way
to
search
what
was
therein
,
and
certainely
to
know
what
they
were
,
upon
which
se●ch
they
found
in
the
said
shipps
great
store
of
Armes
and
Amunition
,
with
about
foure
hundred
Lasts
of
powder
,
and
a
great
quantity
of
Plate
and
money
,
but
very
few
passengers
,
none
being
in
the
shippes
but
the
Officers
and
Saylors
,
which
refused
to
shew
their
Commission
or
to
make
knowne
from
whence
they
came
;
whereupon
they
were
stayed
and
brought
to
the
Earle
of
Warwick●o
be
further
examined
and
there
to
remaine
untill
he
shal
receive
furnh●r
directions
from
the
Parliament
how
to
disp●se
of
them
,
for
it
is
supposed
that
it
was
such
prouision
as
have
beene
raised
by
the
Papists
and
other
of
the
maligna
at
party
in
the
West
Countrey
,
and
were
going
to
Newc●s●le
to
ayde
the
King
against
the
Parliament
.
It
appeares
that
the
Earle
of
Warwicke
is
very
vigilant
and
watchfull
to
keepe
out
all
forraine
enemies
,
from
invading
this
Kingdome
,
for
about
the
same
time
that
the
before
mentioned
foure
shipps
were
taken
by
his
Lordshippe
,
there
was
discovered
uppon
the
Coast
of
England
nere
unto
Plymouth
a
great
Navy
upon
the
Sea
,
but
it
could
not
be
diserned
what
they
were
,
and
the
next
day
being
Thursday
in
the
evening
a
great
battell
was
heard
to
be
fought
upon
the
Sea
,
and
therefore
we
conceive
that
it
was
the
Spanish
fleete
that
lay
at
Dunkirke
▪
or
the
French
which
were
comeing
either
to
aide
his
Majestie
against
the
Parliament
,
or
to
assist
the
Rebells
in
Ireland
,
but
is
most
probable
that
they
came
against
Eagland
because
it
is
reported
that
they
have
sent
store
of
powder
and
Ammunition
to
Ireland
already
which
the
Protestants
there
want
by
reason
of
the
taking
of
a
shipp
.
l●tly
laden
with
pouder
and
match
by
a
French
man
of
warr
that
was
comeing
out
of
Holland
into
Ireland
to
supply
the
want
of
those
things
amongst
the
Protestants
there
,
but
I
shall
say
noe
more
of
that
for
I
doubt
not
but
the
Parliament
will
cause
the
French
King
to
make
restitution
thereof
,
and
it
is
conceived
that
the
Earle
●f
Warrwicke
hath
either
sunke
and
taken
a
great
part
of
this
fleete
and
●ent
the
rest
home
againe
with
such
an
overthrow
that
they
will
be
glad
to
stay
in
harbour
all
this
winter
,
for
the
fight
continued
about
3.
or
4.
houres
,
but
the
successe
thereof
is
not
as
yet
certainly
knowne
yet
we
doubt
not
but
the
event
will
every
way
answere
our
expectations
.
